WALK WITH KAY
BY: J.W. Royals II


in these days of dispair
we finally realize
that those trivial days
don't define our lives
it's the ones we spend
holding a child
calming them down
when things get wild
talking to loved ones
when they are feeling down
helping create a smile
from a wore out frown
its thru the strength
we received everyday
that aloud us to grow
in our own special way
the soothing touch
of a delicate hand
lifting us up
and helping us stand
though we may feel weak
or too tired to go on
with the love of one woman
we all became strong
i pass on to you
these words that i say
for today and now on
i will walk with Kay

SEE YOU IN HEAVEN KAY KAY

Dear God,
Thanking You for taking away the pain from my dear friend Kay Kay. What a wonderful, caring and loving friend You purposely sent my way. It is still so amazing to this day how we feel when someone we love goes away. The physical body in which her soul lived in is now with You and whole again. No more pain and suffering on this earth shall she feel her life here with us was such a gift and I will cherish her wonderful friendship for as long as I live.
We are all very aware that we are created by You and Your Will we must do. Even though we know life as we see it here on earth for as Mothers & Fathers we know the true meaning of unconditional love when our children are given birth. Our hearts break when those we love leave this earth all the while knowing this day will come when our work here on earth is done. Life is measured by years we live no matter how many there may be and you gave us hearts and tears in order to grieve.
To leave this earth and our souls You receive and You allow us to live in eternity. We celebrate when someone is born and when they leave our hearts mourn. I am a true believer we are to celebrate the departure of every soul You receive even though our hearts break. The tears we cry when we lose our loved ones are tears of sadness and of happiness too for we know they are now with You. Thank You for being such a LOVING GOD and allowing our souls to be renewed as our bodies grow old and only You know when it is our time to go.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY KAY KAY... I WILL SEE YOU IN HEAVEN SOMEDAY.
Now every time I see a three…I will think of you and me and all of your loving family.

Aunt Kay, you were such a blessing to so many people. I love you dearly and will miss you terribly. Give my Daddy and Grandma Thrasher hugs and kisses for me! I'm sure they were waiting for you, with warm smiles and big hugs! It is comforting knowing that you are no longer suffering.

~If roses grow in heaven~

If roses grow in heaven,
Lord please pick a bunch for me,
Place them in her arms
and tell her they're from me.

Tell her I love her and miss her,
and when she turns to smile,
place a kiss upon her cheek
and hold her for awhile.

Because remembering her is easy,
I do it every day,
but there's an ache within my heart
that will never go away.
~anonymous

Kay,
you are gone but never forgotten. You remain alive in our hearts, where you are immortal. We love you. We miss you. Peace be with you.

Always,
John Rios

I would like to say that Kay was a very unique individual. She enjoyed life more than most of will ever know how. I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to spend time with her. I feel sure that God will reward her with peace of mind and get a good smile on His face when she asks Him how long has He been doing this. May God rest her Soul

My heart has a big hole in it that can only be filled when I see you again in heaven. I love you and my life wouldn't have been as full if you hadn't been in it. I love you sweetie now walk with Jesus with no pain.
